A Unique Light
To mark BYU's 150th, an acoustics team decided to blow out the birthday candles in an unusual way. They used mammoth sound waves (1000 times louder than a rock concert) and a technique called time reversal acoustics to target each candle in succession and extinguish the flames.

Duo of BYU professors named to list of world's most influential researchers
Two Brigham Young University professors have been named as two of the most influential researchers in the world, with one earning the distinction for the first time and another extending a years-long streak on the list.
BYU research: Mega wildfires can actually be a good thing
BYU professor Sam St. Clair is the principal investigator on the first study to show positive impacts of megafires (fires greater than 100,000 acres) across different forest types.
